    He's a jerk. So I guess you know him personally. There are a lot of jerks in sports. We should not care about their personal life. I care about his production on the field. I use to work with a lot of jerks, so what. As long as you perform as a team when called upon, it is all good. Remember, most athletes are type "A" personalities, that is just the way it is. Big Ben in Pittsburgh continues to do his thing and Pittsburgh will do nothing. They will make comments like they are all upset but at the end of the day, a two time Superbowl champion will play.

    ESPN's Mike and Mike in the morning are talking about this same issue. Production in your field of expertise goes a long way. I do not care if you are a "jerk" as long as you perform. We pay athletes to excel, it is none of my business if he cheats on his girlfriend/spouse. Let's get real. That's all I am saying.

    Doing the things he has done w/ chance after chance after chance tell me he is a jerk. I don't expect our players to be choir boys but to act like it's not big deal what he has done is foolish. All that will matter here is if he produces and stays out of trouble, but if he is in trouble again he could get suspended for a year so he needs to stay out of trouble as well.

    I don't want to lose Leon in this deal. That would not be a good thing IMO

    Peter King tweeted that it's straight up Holmes for the 5th rounder, no Leon, no additional picks.

    Alright brother, you must be following him closely. I wasn't aware of any significant issues with this guy. I just hope his presence on the field raises our offensive production from a putrid 31st in the league in passing. If we can improve in that area it should give us at least an 11 win season.

    Leon has not been mentioned in any news reports. Schefter would have said something by now.

    WHat this trade says to me is our FO is committed to winning this season. We are putting all our wgs in one basket.

    All of these guys on their last year of their current contract are playing for a new deal. No way we are going to keep everyone after this season, but they sure as he'll are going to play their asses off.

    If this works and they being home some hardwear it will all be worth it.
